U8 Soccer, 2018


We have heard that Spring Soccer was pretty low key, and we agree with this assessment.


Jack had previously played in the Fall, but chose to do Flag Football this past year instead of another round of soccer.


Our rule continues to be one sport at a time and thankfully the seasons worked out that Basketball wrapped up right before spring soccer.


Spring soccer is co-ed teams, and Jack enjoyed getting to play with girls, and meeting some kids that he hadn't met in previous sports.


Unfortunately a lot of spring rain meant that more than half of the games and practices were cancelled. We have joked that they got really expensive jerseys this year!



Jack played #6 on Team Uruguay (all the teams were named after countries around the world). Our team held there own, though no official score keeping.


Jack has improved in the sense that he wasn't as timid going after the ball and running harder during the game.


This season we played in the rain, the fog, the cold, and the heat.


Jack enjoyed spring soccer and is looking forward to playing again next spring (hopefully there won't be as many games cancelled then!).


Soccer ended with medals (Jack was super pumped to get two medals in one weekend).


He is really proud of the collection of medals and team photos he has going. He removed all of the books from a picture rail bookshelf we have set up and made a display of his trophies/medals/team pictures instead.
